By default, in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, users are enabled for Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync. If Exchange ActiveSync is disabled for a user, it can be manually enabled. This topic describes how to enable a user for Exchange ActiveSync.

Before You Begin

To perform this procedure, the account you use must be delegated the Exchange Organization Administrator role.

For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange 2007, see Permission Considerations.

Also, before you perform these procedures, confirm that you have enabled Exchange ActiveSync on the Exchange 2007 server that has the Client Access server role installed.

Note:
By default, Exchange ActiveSync is enabled on a Client Access server.
